Not sure this has ever been mentioned- as far as I am aware all the chassis bound for Australia were paid for by the distributors before shipment.
Tony - it could have just been a chassis photographed in a thread that was from someone in Australia - so your note is good as it narrows things down further.
Material - I didn't examine the one I saw recently (and couldn't reasonably scratch it!), but perhaps it was aluminium. Perhaps Hedd and Ruairidh who have posted things in the past will give more detail on things they have seen. And perhaps GE, Mulliner and Startin owners...
Great photos. Mike, perhaps the grey mag could put a brief appeal for more information on such things with something like one of Henry's images?
